I'm sure it's safe... though I wonder what those people, and pets in the houses, that are not 20 feet away (opposite where this picture is taken), think!

Just popped out to get a tube of polos (I like to have a quarter tube when I go out for a run) and the petrol station thermometer which is on the top of the forecourt price board, is showing, bloody 39°C!

Shocking Spherules!

Last week the Perseverance Science Team were astonished by a strange rock comprised of hundreds of millimeter-sized spheres… and the team are now working hard to understand their origin.

Shocking Spherules!

The slowly setting sun as the Solstice sunset inches closer, has a bit of an other worldly DUNE vibe, on this hot and humid night.

It's really windy out here today...the view looking out towards St Paul's Island, has more than a few white horses on the Mediterranean sea.

Well bank is done...a nice walk along the sea path to get there, the Med is definitely rougher than it was when I ran this morning, however at least it has warmed up a smidge...The view over St Paul's Bay is all shades of green and reasonably pleasant. #StPaulsBay #Malta #View #CoastalWalk
